Think you gotta be some sort of coder genius to whip up a Telegram bot? Nah. That’s old news.
Today, I’m gonna walk you through making your very own Telegram bot in, what, like, 15 minutes? Zero code. No sweaty palms. Easy win, promise.
Bots are like one of those utility knives for digital life. Wanna automate stuff, send out alerts, annoy your friends, answer FAQs, run your customer support, or even collect dirt—I mean data—from users? Yep, a Telegram bot’s got your back. And thanks to all these slick no-code tools, literally anyone can jump in.
Alright, enough hype—let’s just get into it.
So What Even Is a Telegram Bot?
Alright, imagine a little robot hiding in your Telegram chats. It chats, it answers, it hands out files, or does tricks with your Google Sheets or website. You know those weird accounts that message you “Hey, support here!” or “BTC hit $69k!!” Yep. Bots. They’re everywhere, even if you didn’t notice.
The best bit? You can make your own and don’t have to type a single curly bracket or…whatever coding people do.
Why Bother With a Bot?
Look, you can automate all sorts of chaos:
Seriously, everyone and their dog is using bots to save time. Why not you?
What You’ll Need (Again, Coding Nerds Sit Down)
All you need:
Let’s roll.
Step 1: BotFather Time
First stop: BotFather. It’s like, the godparent of bots. Every bot starts here.
How you do it:
1. Crack open Telegram, search for @BotFather.
2. Start the chat, smash /start.
3. Hit /newbot and pick a name (make it cool, or not, up to you).
4. Choose a username (has to end in ‘bot’—like, MyCoolBot_bot. Telegram loves that).
5. BotFather spits out a token—it’s like the secret password for your bot. Save it. Don’t lose it. Seriously, don’t.
Boom, now you have a bot. But right now, it’s about as useful as a screen door on a submarine. So, next up...
Step 2: Plug Into a No-Code Bot Builder (Manybot FTW)
Option 1: Manybot. Easiest way to get rolling. You do literally everything right inside Telegram, which is neat.
How to set it up:
You can:
All inside Telegram. You never even have to open another tab. Wild.
Stuff You Can Actually Do With Manybot
Here’s just a taste:
1. Auto-Replies
Make life easy with quick commands like:
/help
/contact
/products
Someone types one, and BAM, your bot answers how you want.
2. Broadcasts
Push messages out to all your subscribers. Updates, sales, rants, new posts—whatever.
3. Button Menus
Let users tap their way around instead of typing. Smart and lazy, my favorite combo.
Example:
Products
Contact Support
Latest Updates
4. Scheduled Things
Want a bot that spams motivational quotes at 9am? Schedule it. Done.
Some Real-Life Inspo
Ideas to steal (or remix):
E-Com Wizardry
Spam out your best products, gather reviews, push people to your cart.
Affiliate Side Hustle
Build a button fiesta linking to your affiliate deals, remind peeps of sales, maybe even track those clicks if you’re fancy.
Coaches & Teachers
Send homework reminders, auto-answer the classic “when is next class?” Collect emails for your mailing list empire.
Creators
Share new vids, blog drops, whatever. Make a “Start Here” menu for n00bs. Let people pick what they wanna subscribe to.
Want Superpowers?
Manybot’s cool, but if you’re craving automation madness—hook up Make (used to be Integromat) or Zapier. That way you can tie Telegram into, I dunno, half the apps on the planet. Gmail? Notion? Calendly? Yep.
Like, somebody types /subscribe, their email gets zapped into a Google Sheet. Or you update Airtable, the bot pings everyone. Nerd-proof, mostly. Some features might cost you a couple bucks, though.
How To Make Your Bot Look Legit
Want your bot not to look like it was made by a bored ten-year-old? Try this:
Yeah. That’s pretty much it. You’re officially in the bot game.
